There has been a steady flow of information about the upcoming "Pokemon GO" game; however, it appears that its release date has not been changed. In fact, if all goes as planned, there are indications that the game will be arriving on mobile devices sometime during the summer of 2016.

Commenting on the release of "Pokemon GO," BidnessEtc states that it is not clear how successful the game will be. It also says that the "Pokemon Sun and Moon" game could very easily end up overwhelming the "Pokemon Go." However, taking into consideration the trailer released for "Pokemon GO," so far, it is likely that the upcoming game could be one of the very best among those releasing for mobile devices.

Meanwhile, the leaks that have emerged for "Pokemon GO" tell another story altogether. They importantly indicate that the game is underwhelming on many fronts and this had led to analysts dampening their expectations about it. However, the game is still generating a lot of interest among players who want to try out its augmented reality features and how they will be able to use it to capture monsters when moving around the real world. Also, the "Pokemon GO" game is scheduled to release with the Pokemon GO Plus wearable. This particular wearable, which is designed to be worn around the wrist, will be paired with Android and iOS devices. Once this pairing is complete, gamers will be able to get alerts whenever a Pikachu is nearby in the game.

Players can then employ buttons on the Pokemon GO Plus wearable to throw a Poke ball at a Pikachu. However, as the beta for "Pokemon GO" is still underway, it is thought that more information about the game will soon be leaking. Right now, the beta has been expanding to more territories, but it is likely that "Pokemon GO" will only release as per scheduled in June or in the following months.
